Spectacle of terror is unfortunately what it’s all about - his base delights in it
Even if you accept the premise and decision, which I absolutely do not, it is the simplest thing to phone the visa holder, tell them their visa is revoked and say they have a month to leave the country. Accosting someone on the street like a kidnapping is just a spectacle of terror.
Marco Rubio on Rumeysa Ozturk: "We revoked her visa ... once you've lost your visa, you're no longer legally in the United States ... if you come into the US as a visitor and create a ruckus for us, we don't want it. We don't want it in our country. Go back and do it in your country."

“On Jan. 29, he signed an Executive Order “Ending Radical Indoctrination in K-12 Schooling” which would revoke Federal funds from K-12 institutions that support anything the administration believes is a “harmful” and “anti-American,” including teaching about race and racism.”

I am working out of a public library and there are a good number of people who seem to be on hard times using the facilities for various reasons like job searching, entertainment, charging peripherals, using the bathroom, etc., and I am struck by how important it is that libraries continue to exist

The Democrats let way too much slide - seems so basic to say some things don’t need to (and even shouldn’t!) need to make a profit. Health, education, water, mail…..

Remember
The original meaning of woke as a catch all term had nothing to do with left-right politics. It was just a saying among African Americans, telling each other to stay informed. Remember that the next time some cries about woke. They are telling you to stay ignorant. #woke

No kidding - I’d stay out if I could too
On the subject of people traveling to the US right about now: Fuck, if I were from another country and I didn't need to come, I sure as hell wouldn't, the current administration has made it clear traveling here isn't safe, and why not take them at their word, there's a whole world to visit

Of course Trump’s not improving my working and middle class lives - no shocker there.
But I had no idea Biden had made $15/hour happen for federal workers. Why???? Why didn’t they publicize stuff like this better?!!!

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. “What can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.

Blaming transgender people and Palestinian Americans, who don't even compromise 1% of the US population COMBINED, for the Dems losing instead of the people who overwhelmingly voted for Trump is a choice and the choice is being a fucking bigot.

why aren't they saying more of this in public and very loudly and repeatedly?
Moulton: "Trump thinks if you try to kill cops to overthrow the government and change an election, that's not domestic terrorism, but somehow having a protest in front of a Tesla dealership is? The bottom line with Trump is freedoms and liberties belong to people who agree with him, and that's it."
